Emerging Questions in Materno-Fetal Microchimerism
Materno-fetal microchimerism is a common, life-long chimeric state first established by the exchange ofsmall numbers of cells between the motherand the fetus during pregnancy. This apparently trivial phenomenon is now attracting attention due to its unexpected andprofound implications in the immune system. For example, is the placenta really an immunological barrier? How do we balance the inter...
متن کاملMaterno-Fetal Transmission of Human Immune Deficiency Virus
Mother-to-child transmission of human immune deficiency virus (HIV) is a multifactorial event highly associated with advanced maternal HIV disease and obstetric incidents taking place during parturition. Thus, various approaches to prevention may be beneficial. Although the time and the route of materno-fetal HIV transmission are still not sufficiently clear, much speaks in favor of a late HIV ...
متن کاملEvolutionary Games: An Algorithmic View
Evolutionary Game Theory is the study of strategic interactions among large populations of agents who base their decisions on simple, myopic rules. A major goal of the theory is to determine broad classes of decision procedures which both provide plausible descriptions of selfish behaviour and include appealing forms of aggregate behaviour. For example, properties such as the correlation betwee...
متن کاملLinguistics from an Evolutionary Point of View
Beginning Linguistics students are sometimes treated to an array of mock “theories” about the evolution of language, including the “Bow-wow” theory, the “Dingdong” theory and others with equally silly and dismissive names. The 1886 ban on the subject (along with proposals for a universal language) by the Société Linguistique de Paris is well known, and also sometimes thrown up as a proscription...
متن کاملAn Evolutionary View of Collective Intelligence
Based on the question “How can people and computers be connected so that – collectively – they act more intelligently than any individuals, groups, or computers have ever done before?” we propose an evolutionary approach. From this point of view, there are of course fundamental differences between man and machine. Where one is artificial, the other is natural, and where the computer needs to pr...
